Please take a moment to sign the Purple Feet guestbook!


After all these years, and our friendship over the past couple of decades...our love of wine has not abated. In fact it has grown. Keep up the excellent work, and I look forward to your weekly email updates.

Hi, William! The website looks AWESOME! Lots of great information available. Just to let you know, the "Warehouse Tasters" in Medicine Hat can't wait to see you again.

Dear William - its a wonderful site and I wanted to thank you for the great articles on the wine producers you visited in VinExpo, they were very informative. I'm on your mailing list now and look forward to your next edition.

Dear William, Following your e-mail I have visited Purple Feet. It's really well made. Bravo! Hope you are in good shape and you will visit us when you are in Piemonte again. Our importer in Alberta is no longer Galileo/Giuseppe De Angelis; hoping to get a much better exposure on the market with a new one that will be appointed in September.

Cordially yours,
Roberto Bava from the Bava Winery

Hi William, Thanks for the great article. I'm sending a copy on to Argentina. I trust you'll get around to a few good bottles this holiday season!

Best Regards,

Now that I know I can access a small taste of the vast knowledge and experience you and Sibeal share in my most favorite categories, i.e. food and wine, I will be a regular visitor to your site! Congratulations and thanks.

Your graphics are really quite good William. Of course, I expected they would be. Congrats to you and Sibéal on your introductory issue.

I am very proud to say that I myself have met William and am very amazed and intrigued by the information that he has to offer. I enjoy taking his courses that he has taught through ALSA and will continue to take them.

Hi! My husband Milton & I just got home from the Amarone wine tasting evening at Grapes & Grains. It was most enjoyable! Thank you so much for sharing your 1977 bottle of Amarone!! It was fantastic!! Just checking out your website - pretty cool!

Hello there William! Your website looks wonderful - lots to learn and some of Sibeal's wonderful recipes! Thanks for introducing me to it and best of luck.

Complimenti William & Sibeal! Terrific layout with great information; looking forward to seeing future issues. I think we should share a table in the not too distant future.

Thank you for this great web site. Finally some reviews and tasting notes of wines that we might actually be able to obtain.

Hello, I like to read and explore the new things about wine. Purple Feet is another example.

I was directed to Purple Feet by Robin Garr's Wine Advisor. Isn't it typical - we find great things Canadian from foreign sources. I'm very impressed & delighted to find another Musar fan. Thanks - I'll be back!

Rick German

Just getting into your site and am very much intrigued. I am going to pass it along to the 38 members of the Smith Mountain Wine Tasters Club here in southwest Virginia.

William, you have a most enjoyable site. I've read the features and am working my way down the menu. Thank you for a good read.

Nice Site! I plan on putting up a link to your site on my wine information page, if this is OK with you! Will keep coming back for more good information!

Thanks,
Ann

Nice site, we will be recommending this site in one of our future Vinoté Notes. You might like to visit our site to see where we fit into the wine scene.

All the best,

This looks to be a fun read every few months. Good luck.

Please add me to your e-mailing list. I found out about your newsletter through the Wine Advisor link. Love to find out and talk about wine. Keep up the interesting info.

I am always interested in great food, wine and travel. Yours was a terrific read. I am so glad I clicked on the link!

Penny O'Neill

GREAT issue, William. Thanks. (The piece on Bourbon was fortuitous -- a friend of mine is a lover of wine, but his wife prefers Bourbon. I shared the article with them.)

Steve Bloch

Hi William my son just e-mailed the link to me and I really enjoyed the articles. They are informative, fun and don't make a religion out of wine. I enjoy the food articles, I am always looking for new ideas.

Hi William, this is a wonderful site for wine lovers... I love this site. Please keep it up.

Dear William, I heard about your web site when it was featured in an e-mail from the Wine
Lover's Page. I zipped over to take a look and am truly delighted to see such a rich source of information about wine coming from Alberta!

Best regards,
Meredith Stevens

What an enjoyable wine and food website you have created! The interview with the striking Veronique Drouhin was stimulating ("For me, winemaking is using grapes to make pleasure.") and the article on chickpeas by Sibéal McCourt-Bincoletto was quite fascinating as well. Am looking forward very much to future editions...

David Somerville

Thanks for the wine insights - insights that you can taste and smell, and look at, at least for a little while! Insights you can remember... Wine is fun!

Dick Peter

I stumbled accross your website by happy accident. I think it is a great site. I plant to visit it regularly. Keep up the good work.
